Colleen Prendergast , LPC

—About

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor practising in Wisconsin.

I have been trained in Grief Counseling, Expressive Therapy, MBSR, and Therapy-based yoga interventions.

—How I Work

My clinical approaches include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Narrative Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy.

My clients have described me as energetic, genuine, creative, empathetic and present, and I would like to first work on a therapeutic relationship built on trust, positive regard and acceptance.

I will offer you a safe environment to open up and discuss your concerns, and work together towards establishing the right skills that will alleviate your distress or worries and help create a happier and healthier you.

—Who I Help

I work with clients on stress and anxiety, grief, coping with life changes, and coaching.

I help clients who are struggling with emotional, psychological, and behavioral issues from young adult and to seniors, including anxiety, depression, ADHD, troubled relationships, separation, divorce, and family conflict.
